37 About the Master

Jeslyn opened her eyes to something covering her view. She took it off her face and sluggishly sat up. She raised the fabric and saw it was a white towel.

Touching her forehead, it wasn’t burning up nor was she feeling any discomfort. Wondering why a damp towel was placed on her forehead, she got down from the bed and dizziness washed over her.

She swayed and immediately held the bed for support.

“Tsk, what is wrong with me now?”

She murmured to herself before she slowly raised herself to stand for a while. When she felt that she could walk without falling, she took the towel and walked towards the bathroom to spread the towel and also wash up.

Coming back to the room, Jeslyn saw a maid standing by the door with a tray. On the tray were dishes tightly sealed.

“Good evening, ma’am, master said your food should be delivered to your room,” the maid spoke out with her head lowered.

“Oh, keep it there,” Jeslyn pointed to the table.

“Yes, ma’am,” the maid walked hurriedly to the table and placed the tray of food on it.

“Ma’am, master said you should eat something light and healthy because it’s already late at night, so brought you some light meal.” The maid explained while opening the plates of food.

“What time is it?” Jeslyn asked as she stared at the garnished pasta, a plate of grilled fish, fruits, dessert, and juice being arranged on the table. 2

“It’s almost 11:00 PM, ma’am,” the maid answered while taking the tray away.

“So late?” Jeslyn frowned. For how long did she sleep?

“Ma’am, please,” The maid gestured with her hand to the table before she took a few steps to the side.

Jeslyn had already washed up in the bathroom earlier, so she sat on the couch and started to eat, after all, she was famished.
